Description:

Edisto Beach State Park in Colleton County, SC is a high density nesting site with 60-90 nests laid annually within a one mile project area. Our conservation efforts focus on both nest protection and education. Beach patrols are conducted in order to: monitor new nesting and hatching activities; possibly relocate nests; protect nests against predation; excavate hatched nests; look for signs of hatchling disorientation; etc. In an effort to educate the public about turtle conservation efforts, we also provide federally permitted turtle walks.

Organization Type: Governmental
